چکیده

Sentence simplification aims to make sentences easier to read and understand. Most recent approaches draw on insights from machine translation to learn simplification rewrites from monolingual corpora of complex and simple sentences. We address the simplification problem with an encoder-decoder model coupled with a deep reinforcement learning framework. Our model, which we call DRESS (as shorthand for Deep REinforcement Sentence Simplification), explores the space of possible simplifications while learning to optimize a reward function that encourages outputs which are simple, fluent, and preserve the meaning of the input. Experiments on three datasets demonstrate that our model outperforms competitive simplification systems.1

Paraphrase Generation with Deep Reinforcement Learning

Automatic generation of paraphrases for a given sentence is an important yet challenging task in natural language processing (NLP), and plays a key role in a number of applications such as question answering, information retrieval and dialogue. In this paper we present a deep reinforcement learning approach to paraphrase generation. Specifically, we propose a new model for the task, which consi...

Operation Scheduling of MGs Based on Deep Reinforcement Learning Algorithm

: In this paper, the operation scheduling of Microgrids (MGs), including Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) and Energy Storage Systems (ESSs), is proposed using a Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) based approach. Due to the dynamic characteristic of the problem, it firstly is formulated as a Markov Decision Process (MDP). Next, Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) algorithm is presented t...

Towards the Use of Deep Reinforcement Learning with Global Policy for Query-based Extractive Summarisation

Supervised approaches for text summarisation suffer from the problem of mismatch between the target labels/scores of individual sentences and the evaluation score of the final summary. Reinforcement learning can solve this problem by providing a learning mechanism that uses the score of the final summary as a guide to determine the decisions made at the time of selection of each sentence. In th...

Joint Extraction of Entities and Relations Using Reinforcement Learning and Deep Learning

We use both reinforcement learning and deep learning to simultaneously extract entities and relations from unstructured texts. For reinforcement learning, we model the task as a two-step decision process. Deep learning is used to automatically capture the most important information from unstructured texts, which represent the state in the decision process. By designing the reward function per s...

Learning to Diagnose: Assimilating Clinical Narratives using Deep Reinforcement Learning

Clinical diagnosis is a critical and nontrivial aspect of patient care which often requires significant medical research and investigation based on an underlying clinical scenario. This paper proposes a novel approach by formulating clinical diagnosis as a reinforcement learning problem. During training, the reinforcement learning agent mimics the clinician’s cognitive process and learns the op...
